The writing strategy of the students of the formula writing group, in English classroom, using formula poems is effective. That is, student writing guided by poetic formulas contributes to more engaged learning and provides a strong framework for creative thinking and critical thinking.


        The importance of creativity in our lives includes human civilization which was made possible because of the creative minds of individuals. For example, inventions, discoveries, and artistic works. In the same vein, it is considered the topic of a wide scope important in both the individual and societal levels for a wide range of domains. Though it is difficult to assess creativity, some multiple instruments and assessments have been designed to measure creativity in specific fields such as problem- solving, design, and poetry writing. In the field of education, creative thinking is a thinking skill classified as divergent which seeks multiple solutions to a certain problem or situation. With this in mind, it is worth engaging students to write controlled poems is one effective strategy to make students enjoy reacting to poetic lines, becoming poets themselves, and improve their creative intelligence.


         As was suggested vividly, it means that the starting point for teaching students to write poetry is allowing them to develop experiences and language to describe them. Students need to know that poetry is a way of responding to something very real in their lives. And, the teacher needs to encourage students to play with words and start expressing themselves poetically not imposing on them adult standards on writing; it will teach them how to think critically and analytically. Creative thinking is naturally divergent and seeks multiple solutions to a problem. Teachers, therefore, should know the various poetic forms to deliver awareness to students that poetry is not a mere emphasis on rhymes and memorization of lines but rather a creation of ideas, forms and styles.

     

     Throughout the previous saying, it could be concluded that the student writing guided by poetic formulas contributes to more engaged learning and provide a strong framework for creative thinking. On this basis, engaging students to be writers of their own experiences through formula verses is one of the stepping stones for classroom use.
